Since the announcement of the will, Xiao Huli suddenly became energetic, he could get out of bed and walk around for the past two days, his face was ruddy, and the master of the dead wood stopped appearing after seeing it once, and everyone knew that Xiao Huli was returning to the light.

Xiao Huli has walked around the homes of many important ministers in the past two days, and even Chongqi, who plans to return to Yongzhou, has changed his itinerary, which makes Xiao Yu fall into endless anxiety, Chongqi does not leave for a day, the plan cannot be implemented, watching Xiao Huli has been teasing his son, accompanied by a smiling face, but his fists are clenched.

"Yu'er, you have to work hard, and the task of our Xiao clan will be handed over to you." Xiao Huli smiled.

"What Your Majesty said is that the nephew will definitely carry forward the Xiao family, assist the prince well, and create the Xiao family's 10,000-year foundation." Xiao Yu said respectfully, but the meaning of these words was worth playing, and Zhong Rouning, who was originally full of smirks, instantly turned blue.

Xiao Huli didn't seem to hear it, and still said with a smile: "Okay! You feudal officials have been in Chencheng for too long because of my illness, and the burden on your shoulders is not light! ”

"This is the responsibility that the nephew should shoulder, the stability of the Xiao family is the most important thing, today seeing that His Majesty's dragon body is safe, the nephew plans to return to Yuzhang in the next few days to arrange the handover." Xiao Yu's tone gradually became stiff.

"Slow down, it's calm now, you don't have to rush back, our uncle and nephew have never had a chance to talk well in these years, stay with me for two more days." There was a hint of pleading in Xiao Huli's tone.

Xiao Yu suddenly felt some pain in his heart, he understood Xiao Huli's mood, no matter what his future was, but now the person in front of him was just an uncle and not an emperor, and family affection could not be separated, Xiao Yu slowed down and said: "Okay, I also want to accompany my uncle more to see the great country." Xiao Yu deliberately put the word "uncle" very seriously.

Xiao Huli smiled happily this time, it was very clean, and there were no impurities.

Meng Yan and his wife have been living in Cangshu's desolate mansion, and they have no intention of returning to the mansion at all, although the Chu State Mansion has become the Jincheng County Palace, their living habits have not changed, Su Qing is not there, and the people who serve are naturally handed over to Gu Qingfeng, at this time Gu Qingfeng is dressed as a maid and concentrates on making tea, Cangshu Haoyue takes Meng Wanshu to play on the grass on the side, Meng Yan and Cang Shuliang are under the eaves and have a rocking chair, so comfortable.

Gu Qingfeng was busy for a while before delivering the tea to the two lying down, Meng Yan closed his eyes and tasted it carefully, and drank endless enjoyment with a cup of tea.

"Qingfeng's skills are good, three points stronger than Su Qing." Meng Yan praised.

"Thanks to His Royal Highness's praise, Xingzhou is a place rich in tea, and drinking tea is the habit of our Xingtan people." Gu Qingfeng's demeanor was calm, and he didn't see any waves.

"Tell me, you must have some important news coming over now." Meng Yan straightened up and said lightly.

"Ye Shuai found out something about Cui's side, and in the next few days, Cui Mian may make a choice." Gu Qingfeng easily filled up the tea for Meng Yan.

"How's the investigation of the dark pile? Is there a chance to do something more? Meng Yan was slightly nervous.

"Your Highness, it's no problem to save people, but I'm afraid it's a little difficult to get out of the city, Su Qing means that it's better for us to talk to Quan Hanliang in a bright and bright way, I think as long as it doesn't affect Quan Hanliang's interests in Jiuqu, he shouldn't go too far."

"Since you have a plan, let's do it, as long as you can guarantee his life, is there any news from Qingshuai?" Meng Yan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Meng Zhao's life could be guaranteed, even if he sacrificed some of Jiangbei's interests.

Gu Qingfeng smiled embarrassedly, and said with some embarrassment: "His Royal Highness estimated well before, the 'flame' does exist, but the leader is not Zhuo Baiqing, but Quartz, Qingshuai means that it is still controllable, and Zhengxi Mansion needs these people." ”

Meng Yan pondered for a moment, and then said: "Don't pursue this matter anymore, I have my own arrangements, by the way, what do you think Your Majesty will turn the three mansions into the four mansions?" ”

Gu Qingfeng glanced at Cang Shuliang, who was still shaking, and then said: "There is nothing to say about the three mansions and the four mansions, expanding the power of the four mansions and adding many restrictions, it seems that this is not good for the new monarch, but it is precisely this way at least to ensure that there will be no turmoil in the short term." ”

Xiao Huli immediately convened the seven auxiliary ministers for a long talk after sobering up, and the attitude towards the Northern Expedition had a new change, and the military strength of the Chen Dynasty was newly decided, except for the Imperial Forest Army and the Praetorian Guard Army that held the capital, the other border armies were called the four prefectures of the southeast, the northwest, and the northwest, in addition to opening the government and building teeth, gave the Metropolitan Governor's Office the power to manage all military and political affairs, and the appointment and dismissal of officials and generals above the third rank needed to be reported to the imperial court, but the imperial court needed to set up a general administration department in each prefecture, and had the right to participate in any military and political affairs, and was directly responsible to the emperor.

"The four prefectures have different tasks, the Beifu army is composed of King Wu's expedition to the northern mansion, which governs the territory of the former Andong Mansion and the king of Dongyang County, and is mainly responsible for the affairs of Lianghuai and Quan Hanliang; The Nanfu Army, headed by Duke Yu, governed all the places that originally conquered Xifu out of Jiangxia and Yuezhou, and was mainly responsible for defending the imperial court; The Dongfu Army was mainly the lord of Chenyang County, and governed the territory of the original expedition to the northern province except Ganzhou, and was mainly responsible for the task of preventing the East China Sea; The Xifu army is responsible for dealing with Liangchuan and Zhu Mu's clan with Zhengxifu as the team, after the capture of Dongchuan, Zhengxifu must immediately leave the Xingtan area, it seems that His Majesty has a lot of opinions on me. Meng Yan said meaningfully.

"Qianchen, Your Majesty is jealous of your actions, but treating you like this is also a kind of protection for you, in general, Your Majesty is not thin on you, and you must not have too much resentment." Cang Shuliang, who had not spoken, comforted.

"I can't talk about resentment, it's just a little unwilling, but Your Majesty still puts the overall situation first after all, and doesn't persecute it too much, at least Jiangxia and Yuezhou are still my place." Meng Yan said lazily, and then looked at Gu Qingfeng, "Qingfeng, inform Zhuo Shuai to clean up Changsha and temporarily move the Xifu Army garrison to Yeling City." ”

"You're going to do it? West River or East River? Wouldn't it be too anxious? Cang Shuliang became a little interested, he had always admired the style of his son-in-law.

"Father-in-law, the title that Your Majesty gave me is the king of Jincheng County, but I don't plan to make a move on Liangchuan, first touch this Zhu Mu clan who has plagued the southern realm for thousands of years, I have learned from my Central Plains education for thousands of years, but I have killed my people in the southern realm for no reason many times, and the Zhu Mu clan should have disappeared a long time ago." Meng Yan's tone became heavier and heavier.

"Well said, you will never disappoint the old man, most of the four countries outside the Central Plains have benefited me a lot in the Central Plains, but they never speak of kindness, once there is a war in my Central Plains, they always take the lead in standing up and competing for interests, it's time to clean them up, do it, the old man fully supports you." Cang Shuliang is also rarely excited.

When the three of them were excited, Meng Wanshu ran over and threw herself into Gu Qingfeng's arms and giggled, Cang Shu Haoyue chased after her behind with a pant, and when she saw Meng Wanshu's appearance, she was angry, pinched her waist and slowed down for a while before pointing at Meng Wanshu and saying hatefully: "Dead girl!" Dare to laugh at the old lady's embroidery! ”

Everyone was stunned at first, and then they all laughed, Cang Shuliang even gave Meng Wanshu a thumbs up, "Shu'er did a good job, your mother's temperament is planted in your hands!" ”

"Daddy! You're used to it! No matter how old a child is, he dares to laugh at me! Cang Shu Haoyue said coquettishly at Cang Shu Liang.

It is indeed angry to say that the son and daughter he gave birth to, the son is pestering the quartz couple all day long, and the daughter is more dependent on Gu Qingfeng, even to the point that she doesn't need her mother at night.

"Shu'er is coming to Daddy, your Aunt Qingfeng still has something to do." Meng Yan opened her hands and called for her daughter.

Meng Wanshu staggered into Meng Yan's arms, immediately put her hands around Meng Yan's neck, tilted her head on Meng Yan's shoulders and secretly aimed at her mother.

"Qingfeng, you go and prepare first, Your Majesty is not going to be a few days away, the contest between my eldest brother and third sister is about to begin, we won't make trouble for them here." Meng Yan commanded.

"Okay, Mrs. and Miss will evacuate to Shaonanguan with An Cang immediately after the state funeral." Gu Qingfeng had already arranged the evacuation route.

Meng Yan shook his head and said: "No, you and Shiyi Lang take Mrs. and Miss away, I don't know when they will do it after the state funeral, it is more convenient for me and An Cang to take advantage of the chaos," Seeing that Gu Qingfeng was about to refuse, Meng Yan stopped: "Qingfeng, you and Shiyi Lang are both good at marching and arranging, Bai Zewei can better protect Mrs. and Miss in your hands, and it will be easier for me and An Cang to get out, besides, there are few opponents in the entire Chen Dynasty on martial arts cultivation, so there is no need to argue, that's all." ”

Gu Qingfeng still wanted to fight, but he only heard Cangshu Haoyue say: "Qingfeng, listen to His Highness's arrangement, he is even more worried about us staying here." ”

Even Cangshu Haoyue said this, Gu Qingfeng looked hypocritical when he fought again, and was about to turn around to leave, when he suddenly remembered something, and said: "Your Highness, just now the secret spy report of the Ming Jian Division in Chencheng said that the county lord of Chenyang has been living in the Nangang Royal Palace for the past few days, is there something going on between the county lord and Niangniang?" ”

Meng Yan didn't care, but suddenly remembered something, his expression immediately became nervous, and said, "That's not right! Sanniang will never do meaningless things, Nangang? Qingfeng, you immediately get the spy moving, I must know what happened in Nangang before tonight! And tell Anju to strengthen the defense of the house! ”

Meng Yan's nervousness made Gu Qingfeng confused, in her eyes, it was not abnormal for the county lord of Chenyang to be the sister of the queen's mother living in the Nangang Royal Palace, but it was a key person, it was still necessary to tell Meng Yan, but Meng Yan's nervousness really didn't understand, could the county lord of Chenyang still rebel?
